Today's card was inspired by a trip to the seaside. Add to that a color palette - and I knew exactly what I wanted to create.
I had recently purchase a beachy set of rub-ons. I didn't need much else, just a pan of metallic watercolor and a sentiment stamp.
I rubbed three images onto a cardboard, then fussy cut them out and mounted them with foam strips. I painted a few lines to give the scene some 'vitamin sea' and stamped the sentiment. The sentiment is a tricky one to translate, 'longing for the sea' sounds about right.
Entering this into these lovely challenges that served as my guide today:
